7c690ffec0 vmm: config: Expose disk lock granularity option
Add a per-disk lock_granularity parameter that lets users choose
between byte-range OFD locks and whole-file OFD locks:

  --disk path=/foo.img,lock_granularity=byte-range
  --disk path=/bar.img,lock_granularity=full

Byte-range is the default and matches QEMU behavior, working
best with storage backends where whole-file OFD locks are treated
as mandatory. The full option restores the original whole-file
locking for environments that depend on it.

The LockGranularityChoice enum and its FromStr impl live in the
block crate alongside the existing LockGranularity type. The
Block device converts the user-facing choice to the internal
LockGranularity at lock time, keeping device_manager.rs simple.

Closes: #7553

3f800d2bb4 vmm: Add core scheduling support for vCPU threads
Add a core_scheduling option to --cpus with three modes of operation.
This feature takes advantage of a kernel feature that restricts
scheduling of processes on the SMT threads on the same core. This is
useful for mitigating certain classes of side-channel attacks and has
better performance that disabling SMT on the CPU.

- vm (default): All vCPU threads share one core scheduling cookie.
  They may be co-scheduled on SMT siblings while host threads are
  excluded - this has minimal performance impact and can even
  potentially improve performance from co-location.
- vcpu: Each vCPU gets a unique cookie preventing any two vCPUs from
  sharing SMT siblings. This has the strongest isolation but at some
  compromise of performance.
- off: No core scheduling applied (old behaviour).

This isolation is done by the kernel maintaining a "cookie" - threads
with the same cookie can share the same core.

In vCPU mode each vCPU thread the cookie is created when the thread
starts and each gets a unique cookie. For VM mode the first vCPU thread
(the leader) will create the cookie. All other vCPU threads started (via
hotplug or during boot) will have that cookie shared to it.

EINVAL/ENODEV from prctl is silently ignored so this works transparently
on kernels older than 5.14 that lack PR_SCHED_CORE or when SMT disabled.

Full details of this kernel feature can be found at:
https://docs.kernel.org/admin-guide/hw-vuln/core-scheduling.html

This implementation was inspired by crosvm's implementation - in
particular the enable_core_scheduling() function.

This is challenging to test via integration testing but the logging of
the received cookie shows it working:

VM case:

cloud-hypervisor:   0.243102s: <vcpu1> INFO:vmm/src/cpu.rs:1247 -- vCPU 1: core scheduling cookie = 0x33e4c167
cloud-hypervisor:   0.243102s: <vcpu0> INFO:vmm/src/cpu.rs:1247 -- vCPU 0: core scheduling cookie = 0x33e4c167

Add an image_type to DiskConfig to specify the image type. If none is

behaviour in the QCOW2 backend by disabling the backing file support.

If the image type is autodetected then fix it in the config so that it

Add sparse boolean configuration option to DiskConfig with a default
value of true to control disk space allocation behavior.

When sparse is true, the disk uses sparse allocation where deallocated

When sparse is false, disk space is kept fully allocated and DISCARD
is not advertised.

WRITE_ZEROES is always advertised when the backend supports it,

a6426e3615 devices: gracefully close preserved FDs on device remove
For a graceful resource management of externally provided FDs in Cloud
Hypervisor, corresponding FDs need to be closed on a device removal.
This is the case for virtio-net devices using external FDs, for example.

With the fix introduced in this commit, we allow management software to
properly clean up resources, e.g., libvirt can clean up tap devices.

PS: CHV uses "added" and "removed", which has the same meaning as
hot device attach/hotplug and hot device detach/unplug.

(1) The old messages are missing the "why" part. With this change, users
    of Cloud Hypervisor have somehow more context and people looking at
    the code perfectly know what's going on.

(2) Using warn! implies that the user should take action, but in this
    case, there’s nothing the user can do. If the API is used correctly
    and file descriptors are passed via an SCM_RIGHTS message over a
    UNIX domain socket, everything works as intended. In that case,
    there's no need to issue a warning — debug! is sufficient.

66aa0743f0 vmm: allow net devices without ip and mask
This change enables easier integration with third-party
tools by removing the requirement for a dummy IP address
when configuring tap devices. The modification applies to
both CLI and API interactions.

Previously, cloud-hypervisor would automatically set a
default static IP address (192.168.249.1) if none was provided.

This could lead to:

* multiple devices without explicit IP configurations
  would end up with the same default IP
* unnecessary inclusion of this IP in firewall rules
* the IP address could clash with host networking and
  routing

This introduces a new constraint:
When providing an IP, the mask must also be provided.

Removes warnings introduced in #7179.
Closes issue #7083.

1. provide firmware
2. provide kernel
3. provide kernel + cmdline
4. provide kernel + initrd
5. provide kernel + cmdline + initrd

As the difference between `--firmware` and `--kernel` is not very clear
currently, especially as both use/support a Xen PVH entry, adding this
helps to identify the cause of misconfiguration.

dce82a34d0 net_util: add support for IPv6 addresses on tap interfaces
Allow tap interfaces to be configured with an IPv6 address. The change
is fairly straightforward: we need to update the API types and CLI
parsing to accept either an IPv6 or IPv4 and then match on the IP
address type when the tap device is configured.

For IPv6 addresses, the netmask (prefix) must be provided at the same
time as the address itself (in the SIOCSIFADDR ioctl). They cannot be
configured separately. So we remove the separate "set_netmask" function
and convert "set_ip_addr" to also accept a netmask. For IPv4 addresses,
the IP address and netmask were already always set together, so this
should have no functional impact for users of IPv4 addresses.

88a9f79944 misc: Adapt consistent import style formatting
Historically the Cloud Hypervisor coding style has been to ensure that
all imports are ordered and placed in a single group. Unfortunately
cargo fmt has no support for ensuring that all imports are in a single
group so if whitespace lines were added as part of the import statements
then they would only be odered correctly in the group.

By adopting "group_imports="StdExternalCrate" we can enforce a style
where imports are placed in at most three groups for std, external
crates and the crate itself. Choosing a style enforceable by the tooling
reduces the reviewer burden.

5f18ac3bc0 devices: Add pvmemcontrol device
Pvmemcontrol provides a way for the guest to control its physical memory
properties, and enables optimizations and security features. For
example, the guest can provide information to the host where parts of a
hugepage may be unbacked, or sensitive data may not be swapped out, etc.

Pvmemcontrol allows guests to manipulate its gPTE entries in the SLAT,
and also some other properties of the memory map the back's host memory.
This is achieved by using the KVM_CAP_SYNC_MMU capability. When this
capability is available, the changes in the backing of the memory region
on the host are automatically reflected into the guest. For example, an
mmap() or madvise() that affects the region will be made visible
immediately.

There are two components of the implementation: the guest Linux driver
and Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM) device. A guest-allocated shared
buffer is negotiated per-cpu through a few PCI MMIO registers, the VMM
device assigns a unique command for each per-cpu buffer. The guest
writes its pvmemcontrol request in the per-cpu buffer, then writes the
corresponding command into the command register, calling into the VMM
device to perform the pvmemcontrol request.

The synchronous per-cpu shared buffer approach avoids the kick and busy
waiting that the guest would have to do with virtio virtqueue transport.

The Cloud Hypervisor component can be enabled with --pvmemcontrol.

e50a641126 devices: add debug-console device
This commit adds the debug-console (or debugcon) device to CHV. It is a
very simple device on I/O port 0xe9 supported by QEMU and BOCHS. It is
meant for printing information as easy as possible, without any
necessary configuration from the guest at all.

It is primarily interesting to OS/kernel and firmware developers as they
can produce output as soon as the guest starts without any configuration
of a serial device or similar. Furthermore, a kernel hacker might use
this device for information of type B whereas information of type A are
printed to the serial device.

This device is not used by default by Linux, Windows, or any other
"real" OS, but only by toy kernels and during firmware development.

In the CLI, it can be configured similar to --console or --serial with
the --debug-console parameter.

c297d8d796 vmm: use RateLimiterGroup for virtio-blk devices
Add a 'rate_limit_groups' field to VmConfig that defines a set of
named RateLimiterGroups.

When the 'rate_limit_group' field of DiskConfig is defined, all
virtio-blk queues will be rate-limited by a shared RateLimiterGroup.
The lifecycle of all RateLimiterGroups is tied to the Vm.
A RateLimiterGroup may exist even if no Disks are configured to use
the RateLimiterGroup. Disks may be hot-added or hot-removed from the
RateLimiterGroup.

When the 'rate_limiter' field of DiskConfig is defined, we construct
an anonymous RateLimiterGroup whose lifecycle is tied to the Disk.
This is primarily done for api backwards compatability. Importantly,
the behavior is not the same! This implementation rate_limits the
aggregate bandwidth / iops of an individual disk rather than the
bandwidth / iops of an individual queue of a disk.

When neither the 'rate_limit_group' or the 'rate_limiter' fields of
DiskConfig is defined, the Disk is not rate-limited.

13ef424bf1 vmm: Add IGVM to the config/commandline
This patch adds igvm to the Vm config and params as well as
the command line argument to pass igvm file to load into
guest memory. The file must maintain the IGVM format.
The CLI option is featured guarded by igvm feature gate.

The IGVM(Independent Guest Virtual Machine) file format
is designed to encapsulate all information required to
launch a virtual machine on any given virtualization stack,
with support for different isolation technologies such as
AMD SEV-SNP and Intel TDX.

At a conceptual level, this file format is a set of commands created
by the tool that generated the file, used by the loader to construct
the initial guest state. The file format also contains measurement
information that the underlying platform will use to confirm that
the file was loaded correctly and signed by the appropriate authorities.

The IGVM file is generated by the tool:
https://github.com/microsoft/igvm-tooling

The IGVM file is parsed by the following crates:
